WWE RAW Power Rankings: Owens and Cena Ready for Round Two

June 4, 2015 Patrick Hickey Jr. Professional Wrestling 0

Fresh after Elimination Chamber, the Money in the Bank card is already shaping up to be a decent one.

Check out this week’s RAW Power Rankings to see who’s making the most waves before Money in the Bank.

Honorable Mention: The Big Show: Calling out Ryback, it appears The Big Show has his heart set on the Intercontinental title. While it’s not the best feud for Ryback, it could be an interesting one. Ryback, for the first time in his career, may have too much on his plate.

5: Roman Reigns: While the fans don’t necessarily want to see him as WWE World Heavyweight Champion, that doesn’t mean they don’t want to see him succeed. His wins over Wade Barrett, Bray Wyatt and Mark Henry keeps him in the Money in the Bank ladder match and keeps him in the upper part of the card. With Dean Ambrose getting another title shot, Reigns’ friendship with him couldn’t have come at a better time.

4: John Cena: Only Cena could come out after losing a huge match and talk smack. On the heels of one of the biggest losses of his career, Cena let Kevin Owens know that he’s no marketing machine and that he’s down for another match, at anytime. While it’s obvious he’s going to put Owens over again, he’s going to make himself look just as good.

3: Seth Rollins: His willingness to through the Authority under a verbal bus in order to prove himself means he so much more than a weasel champion. One of the most enigmatic young performers in the industry, expect Rollins to hold on to the belt until Brock Lesnar comes back in a blaze of glory.

2: Dean Ambrose: He’s not quite Stone Cold, but he’s a pretty damn good anti-hero that if used properly, can be a more than solid force on the card for the next decade n

1: Kevin Owens: He’s got a match on John Cena and made sure everyone knew it, thanks to a damn good promo. While he’s still Kevin Steen-lite, it’s better than not seeing him at all, right?
